Yes - you could rephrase it to use the word utilize, but the word still is
valid and has a use....


You're missing the point of there being two words -- they aren't really
two words but the two (particular) forms of the same one: one is a noun
while the other is an adjective. Which is the right one is based on the
grammatical structure of the sentence. Just as in the other example one
was a verb and the other and adverb (iirc).
